I've had to use a large pair of channel locks to get the filter off my car once after taking it to a shop (I usually don't change my own oil in the middle of winter). I had tried the screwdriver but I was just ripping through the steel but I grabbed the channel locks and that did the trick. I never use a wrench when I replace the filter on my cars but I have not changed the oil on my bike yet. Can you just go had tight on a bike or do you have to put a wrench on it?
